Mini Food Magnets to Jazz up School Lockers

So my wonderful daughter takes some old mini magnets I made a while ago to snazz up her locker at middle school. And some of you know where I might be going with this...her friends of course wanted some cute little mini food magnets for their lockers too. :) Luckily I had some pieces lying around that I made a while ago when I made the teacher magnets. So I pieced some together and created little sets for her friends based on their personal noshing habits. One friend constantly says, "I like pie," and she really does like pie, so I made her a pie set with prep board. Another friend loves bacon, so that was easy, put together a bacon and egg set with toast on the side. And still another friend, well, she's just the cheeriest little person on the planet, and she loves rainbows. So what else? Rainbow cake with prep board and a few cupcakes thrown in for good measure. 

My fingers are extremely stiff these days. They can't seem to decide if rolling clay is good physical therapy for them, or bad. So it's probably time I take another rest and leave the lovely clay work to those of you with excellent hand strength and dexterity. I'll be perusing all of your posts and admiring your creativity in the meantime. :) Living vicariously for a while. I noticed that I'm closing in on 100 followers since I first started this blog a year and a half ago! Wow! I am absolutely gobsmacked about that! So I'm definitely going to take a break so I can create some nifty little minis for a 100 follower celebration giveaway when I reach that blogger milestone! 

Thank you all SO MUCH for following, and commenting, and listening to me whine about my health problems (maybe I should make some mini-cheeses to go with the "whine" ha ha)
